D  G (2x)
 
D                       G
I, I wish you could swim
        D                               G
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
       C                                D
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
       Am         Em            D
We can beat them, for ever and ever
                C     G               D
Oh we can be Heroes, just for one day
 
D  G (2x)
 
D               G
I, I will be king
        D               G
And you, you will be queen
       C                        D
Though nothing will drive them away
       Am        Em             D
We can be Heroes, just for one day
         C     G                D
We can be us, just for one day
 
D               G
I, I can remember (I remember)
D                 G
Standing, by the wall (by the wall)
        D          G
And the guns shot above our heads (over our heads)
        D                               G
And we kissed, as though nothing could fall (nothing could fall)
       C                   D
And the shame was on the other side
           Am        Em            D
Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever
                   C     G              D
Then we could be Heroes, just for one day
 
D                G
        We can be Heroes
D                G
        We can be Heroes
D                G
        We can be Heroes
D                G
        We can be Heroes
